Research on Strengthening Mechanism of Interface Bonding and Mechanical Properties of 316H/TC4 Composite Plates by Corrugated-Flat Two-Pass Vacuum Hot Rolling Process
摘要
In order to address the critical challenge of achieving high-strength bonding in stainless steel/titanium alloy composite plates, this study innovatively proposes a two-pass vacuum hot rolling composite process with corrugated-flat two-pass for fabricating 316H/TC4 composite plates. Through a series of rolling temperature experiments conducted at 850-950 °C and employing ABAQUS simulations, the temperature-dependent regulation mechanism on interfacial microstructure and mechanical properties was elucidated. It was revealed that optimal metallurgical bonding, characterized by the presence of beneficial Fe-Ti compounds and ductile fracture, was achieved at 900 °C. Conversely, at 950 °C, a substantial quantity of brittle IMCs results in a substantial decrease in strength. The tensile strength of the composite plate exhibited a slight increase with an increase in temperature; however, the failure elongation decreased. According to the findings of the simulation, the process of single-pass corrugated rolling exerts significant strain in the valley regions, facilitating metal flow through multiple slip zones (FRZ/BRZ). This phenomenon is observed to enhance the bonding area. Subsequent flat rolling has been demonstrated to flatten interfaces and avoid shear stress concentration, thereby preventing cracking. This process offers a novel approach for high-performance fabrication of dissimilar metal composite plates.
